Trapped
Ramon Russell Gooden, Tupac Amaru Shakur
You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Happiness, living on the streets is a delusion
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Shot up or shot down with the bullet that he bought
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what the streets do to me
'Cause they never talk peace in the black community
All we know is violence, do the job in silence
Walk the city streets like a rat pack of tyrants
Too many brothers daily heading for the big pen
Niggas commin' out worse off then when they went in
Over the years I done a lot of growin' up
Gettin' drunk thrown' up
Cuffed up
Then I said I had enough
There must be another route, way out
To money and fame, I changed my name
And played a different game
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
If one more cop harassed me I just might go psycho
And when I get 'em
I'll hit 'em with the bum rush
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go 'G'
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch the Uzi
They got me trapped
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
They got me trapped
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
Trapped
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
Trapped
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
They got me trapped
Can barely walk the city streets
Without a cop harassing me, searching me
Then asking my identity
Hands up, throw me up against the wall
Didn't do a thing at all
I'm tellin' you one day these suckers gotta fall
Cuffed up throw me on the concrete
Coppers try to kill me
But they didn't know this was the wrong street
Bang bang, down another casualty
But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality
Who do you blame?
It's a shame because the mans slain
He got caught in the chains of his own game
How can I feel guilty after all the things they did to me
Sweated me, hunted me
Trapped in my own community
One day I'm gonna bust
Blow up on this society
Why did ya lie to me?
I couldn't find a trace of equality
Work me like a slave while they laid back
Homie don't play that
It's time I lett 'em suffer the payback
I'm tryin' to avoid physical contact
I can't hold back, it's time to attack jack
They got me trapped
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
They got me trapped
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
Trapped
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
Trapped
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
Now I'm trapped and want to find a getaway
All I need is a G and somewhere safe to stay
Can't use the phone
'Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in
Did it before
Ain't scared to use my gat again
I look back at hindsight the fight was irrelevant
But now he's the devil's friend
Too late to be tellin' him
He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away
Homie is done away I should of put my gun away
I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was the ridicule
Girlies was laughin', Tup sayin', "Damn homies is dissin' you"
I fired my weapon
Started steppin' in the hurricane
I got shot so I dropped
Feelin' a burst of pain
Got to my feet
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
Ran through an alley
Still lookin' for my getaway
Coppers said Freeze, or you'll be dead today
Trapped in a corner
Dark and I couldn't see the light
Thoughts in my mind was the nine and a better life
What do I do?
Live my life in a prison cell
I'd rather die then be trapped in a living hell
They got me trapped
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
They got me trapped
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
Trapped
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
You know they got me trapped
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
Trapped
Yo, y'all seen 2Pac, man?
Y'all seen 2Pac, man?
There he go, Ayy 'Pac
Ayy, The Rollers out here, Pac, we gon' bail
Let's go Pac, let's go, man
Where he at? Where the Rollers at?
let's go man, let's go man, let's go
Ayo man, let's go
They got us trapped man, they got us trapped
Let's go man
You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Sabes que me tienen atrapado en esta prisión de aislamiento
Happiness, living on the streets is a delusion
La felicidad, vivir en las calles es una ilusión
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Incluso un criminal suave algún día debe ser atrapado
Shot up or shot down with the bullet that he bought
Disparado o abatido con la bala que compró
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what the streets do to me
Nueve milímetros pateando, pensando en lo que las calles me hacen
'Cause they never talk peace in the black community
Porque nunca hablan de paz en la comunidad negra
All we know is violence, do the job in silence
Todo lo que sabemos es violencia, hacer el trabajo en silencio
Walk the city streets like a rat pack of tyrants
Caminar por las calles de la ciudad como una manada de tiranos
Too many brothers daily heading for the big pen
Demasiados hermanos diariamente dirigiéndose a la gran penitenciaría
Niggas commin' out worse off then when they went in
Los negros salen peor de lo que estaban cuando entraron
Over the years I done a lot of growin' up
A lo largo de los años he crecido mucho
Gettin' drunk thrown' up
Embriagándome y vomitando
Cuffed up
Maniatado
Then I said I had enough
Entonces dije que ya había tenido suficiente
There must be another route, way out
Debe haber otra ruta, una salida
To money and fame, I changed my name
Hacia el dinero y la fama, cambié mi nombre
And played a different game
Y jugué un juego diferente
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
Cansado de estar atrapado en este ciclo vicioso
If one more cop harassed me I just might go psycho
Si un policía más me acosa, podría volverse psicópata
And when I get 'em
Y cuando los atrape
I'll hit 'em with the bum rush
Los golpearé con el bum rush
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
Solo un lunático querría ver su cráneo aplastado
Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go 'G'
Oye, si eres inteligente, realmente me dejarás ir 'G'
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch the Uzi
Pero mantenme encerrado en este gueto y atrapa la Uzi
They got me trapped
Me tienen atrapado
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
(Uh uh, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)
They got me trapped
Me tienen atrapado
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
(No, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)
Trapped
Atrapado
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
(Uh uh, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)
Trapped
Atrapado
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
(No, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)
They got me trapped
Me tienen atrapado
Can barely walk the city streets
Apenas puedo caminar por las calles de la ciudad
Without a cop harassing me, searching me
Sin que un policía me acose, me registre
Then asking my identity
Luego preguntando mi identidad
Hands up, throw me up against the wall
Manos arriba, me empujan contra la pared
Didn't do a thing at all
No hice nada en absoluto
I'm tellin' you one day these suckers gotta fall
Te lo digo, un día estos chupasangres tienen que caer
Cuffed up throw me on the concrete
Maniatado me tiran al concreto
Coppers try to kill me
Los policías intentan matarme
But they didn't know this was the wrong street
Pero no sabían que esta era la calle equivocada
Bang bang, down another casualty
Bang bang, otra baja
But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality
Pero es un policía quien recibe el disparo, hay brutalidad
Who do you blame?
¿A quién culpas?
It's a shame because the mans slain
Es una vergüenza porque el hombre está muerto
He got caught in the chains of his own game
Cayó en las cadenas de su propio juego
How can I feel guilty after all the things they did to me
¿Cómo puedo sentirme culpable después de todas las cosas que me hicieron?
Sweated me, hunted me
Me sudaron, me cazaron
Trapped in my own community
Atrapado en mi propia comunidad
One day I'm gonna bust
Un día voy a estallar
Blow up on this society
Explotar en esta sociedad
Why did ya lie to me?
¿Por qué me mentiste?
I couldn't find a trace of equality
No pude encontrar un rastro de igualdad
Work me like a slave while they laid back
Me trabajaron como un esclavo mientras ellos se relajaban
Homie don't play that
Homie no juega eso
It's time I lett 'em suffer the payback
Es hora de que sufran el contraataque
I'm tryin' to avoid physical contact
Estoy tratando de evitar el contacto físico
I can't hold back, it's time to attack jack
No puedo contenerme, es hora de atacar, Jack
They got me trapped
Me tienen atrapado
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
(Uh uh, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)

Trapped
Atrapado
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
(No, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)
Now I'm trapped and want to find a getaway
Ahora estoy atrapado y quiero encontrar una salida
All I need is a G and somewhere safe to stay
Todo lo que necesito es un G y un lugar seguro para quedarme
Can't use the phone
No puedo usar el teléfono
'Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in
Porque estoy seguro de que alguien está pinchando
Did it before
Lo hice antes
Ain't scared to use my gat again
No tengo miedo de usar mi gat de nuevo
I look back at hindsight the fight was irrelevant
Miro hacia atrás con perspectiva, la pelea era irrelevante
But now he's the devil's friend
Pero ahora él es amigo del diablo
Too late to be tellin' him
Demasiado tarde para decírselo
He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away
Él disparó primero y estaré condenado si huyo
Homie is done away I should of put my gun away
Homie se ha ido, debería haber guardado mi arma
I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was the ridicule
No estaba pensando, todo lo que escuché fue el ridículo
Girlies was laughin', Tup sayin', "Damn homies is dissin' you"
Las chicas se reían, Tup decía: "Maldita sea, los homies te están faltando al respeto"
I fired my weapon
Disparé mi arma
Started steppin' in the hurricane
Empecé a caminar en el huracán
I got shot so I dropped
Me dispararon así que caí
Feelin' a burst of pain
Sintiendo un estallido de dolor
Got to my feet
Llegué a mis pies
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
No podía ver nada más que sangre sangrienta
Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
Ahora soy un fugitivo para ser cazado como un asesino
Ran through an alley
Corrí por un callejón
Still lookin' for my getaway
Todavía buscando mi escapatoria
Coppers said Freeze, or you'll be dead today
Los policías dijeron: "¡Congela, o estarás muerto hoy!"
Trapped in a corner
Atrapado en una esquina
Dark and I couldn't see the light
Oscuro y no podía ver la luz
Thoughts in my mind was the nine and a better life
Pensamientos en mi mente eran el nueve y una vida mejor
What do I do?
¿Qué hago?
Live my life in a prison cell
¿Vivo mi vida en una celda de prisión?
I'd rather die then be trapped in a living hell
Prefiero morir que estar atrapado en un infierno viviente
They got me trapped
Me tienen atrapado
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
(Uh uh, no pueden mantener al hombre negro abajo)
They got me trapped
Me tienen atrapado

You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Você sabe que eles me prenderam nesta prisão de isolamento
Happiness, living on the streets is a delusion
Felicidade, viver nas ruas é uma ilusão
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Até um criminoso habilidoso um dia será pego
Shot up or shot down with the bullet that he bought
Baleado ou abatido pela bala que ele comprou
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what the streets do to me
Nove milímetros chutando, pensando no que as ruas fazem comigo
'Cause they never talk peace in the black community
Porque eles nunca falam de paz na comunidade negra
All we know is violence, do the job in silence
Tudo que conhecemos é violência, fazer o trabalho em silêncio
Walk the city streets like a rat pack of tyrants
Andar pelas ruas da cidade como um bando de tiranos
Too many brothers daily heading for the big pen
Muitos irmãos indo diariamente para a grande prisão
Niggas commin' out worse off then when they went in
Negros saindo pior do que quando entraram
Over the years I done a lot of growin' up
Ao longo dos anos eu cresci bastante
Gettin' drunk thrown' up
Ficando bêbado e vomitando
Cuffed up
Algemado
Then I said I had enough
Então eu disse que tinha chegado ao limite
There must be another route, way out
Deve haver outro caminho, uma saída
To money and fame, I changed my name
Para o dinheiro e a fama, eu mudei meu nome
And played a different game
E joguei um jogo diferente
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
Cansado de estar preso neste ciclo vicioso
If one more cop harassed me I just might go psycho
Se mais um policial me assediar, eu posso enlouquecer
And when I get 'em
E quando eu pegá-los
I'll hit 'em with the bum rush
Eu vou atacá-los com tudo
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
Só um lunático gostaria de ver seu crânio esmagado
Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go 'G'
Se você é inteligente, realmente vai me deixar ir, 'G'
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch the Uzi
Mas me mantenha preso neste gueto e enfrente a Uzi
They got me trapped

Can barely walk the city streets
Mal consigo andar pelas ruas da cidade
Without a cop harassing me, searching me
Sem um policial me assediando, me revistando
Then asking my identity
Depois perguntando minha identidade
Hands up, throw me up against the wall
Mãos para cima, me jogam contra a parede
Didn't do a thing at all
Não fiz nada de errado
I'm tellin' you one day these suckers gotta fall
Estou dizendo, um dia esses caras vão cair
Cuffed up throw me on the concrete
Algemado, me jogam no concreto
Coppers try to kill me
Policiais tentam me matar
But they didn't know this was the wrong street
Mas eles não sabiam que esta era a rua errada
Bang bang, down another casualty
Bang bang, mais uma baixa
But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality
Mas é um policial que foi baleado, há brutalidade
Who do you blame?
A quem você culpa?
It's a shame because the mans slain
É uma vergonha porque o homem foi morto
He got caught in the chains of his own game
Ele foi pego nas correntes do seu próprio jogo
How can I feel guilty after all the things they did to me

Sweated me, hunted me
Me pressionaram, me caçaram

Preso na minha própria comunidade

Um dia eu vou explodir
Blow up on this society
Explodir nesta sociedade

Por que você mentiu para mim?
I couldn't find a trace of equality
Não consegui encontrar um traço de igualdade
Work me like a slave while they laid back

É hora de eles sofrerem o revide

Estou tentando evitar contato físico
I can't hold back, it's time to attack jack

All I need is a G and somewhere safe to stay
Tudo que preciso é de um G e um lugar seguro para ficar
Can't use the phone
Não posso usar o telefone
'Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in
Porque tenho certeza que alguém está interceptando
Did it before
Já fizeram isso antes
Ain't scared to use my gat again
Não tenho medo de usar minha arma novamente
I look back at hindsight the fight was irrelevant
Olho para trás, em retrospecto, a luta era irrelevante
But now he's the devil's friend
Mas agora ele é amigo do diabo
Too late to be tellin' him
Tarde demais para dizer a ele
He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away
Ele atirou primeiro e eu estaria condenado se fugisse
Homie is done away I should of put my gun away
O mano acabou, eu deveria ter guardado minha arma
I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was the ridicule
Não estava pensando, tudo que ouvi foi o ridículo
Girlies was laughin', Tup sayin', "Damn homies is dissin' you"
As garotas riam, Tup dizendo, "Caramba, os manos estão te desrespeitando"
I fired my weapon
Eu atirei minha arma
Started steppin' in the hurricane
Comecei a andar no furacão
I got shot so I dropped
Levei um tiro então caí
Feelin' a burst of pain
Sentindo uma explosão de dor
Got to my feet
Levantei-me
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
Não conseguia ver nada além de sangue
Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
Agora sou um fugitivo a ser caçado como um assassino
Ran through an alley
Corri por um beco
Still lookin' for my getaway
Ainda procurando minha saída
Coppers said Freeze, or you'll be dead today
Os policiais disseram "Parado, ou você morre hoje"
Trapped in a corner

Tu sais qu'ils m'ont enfermé dans cette prison de solitude
Happiness, living on the streets is a delusion
Le bonheur, vivre dans la rue est une illusion
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Même un criminel doux doit un jour se faire prendre
Shot up or shot down with the bullet that he bought
Abattu ou descendu avec la balle qu'il a achetée
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what the streets do to me
Neuf millimètres de recul en pensant à ce que les rues me font
'Cause they never talk peace in the black community

All we know is violence, do the job in silence

Walk the city streets like a rat pack of tyrants

Niggas commin' out worse off then when they went in
Les négros sortent pire qu'avant d'y entrer
Over the years I done a lot of growin' up
Au fil des ans, j'ai beaucoup grandi
Gettin' drunk thrown' up
En me saoulant et en vomissant
Cuffed up
Menotté
Then I said I had enough
Puis j'ai dit que j'en avais assez
There must be another route, way out
Il doit y avoir une autre voie, une sortie
To money and fame, I changed my name
Vers l'argent et la célébrité, j'ai changé de nom
And played a different game
Et j'ai joué à un jeu différent
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
Fatigué d'être pris dans ce cycle vicieux
If one more cop harassed me I just might go psycho
Si un policier de plus me harcèle, je pourrais devenir fou
And when I get 'em
Et quand je les aurai
I'll hit 'em with the bum rush
Je les frapperai avec l'assaut
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
Seul un fou aimerait voir son crâne écrasé
Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go 'G'
Yo, si tu es intelligent, tu me laisseras vraiment partir 'G'
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch the Uzi

Bang bang, down another casualty
Bang bang, une autre victime

Mais c'est un flic qui a été abattu, c'est de la brutalité
Who do you blame?
Qui blâmes-tu ?
It's a shame because the mans slain
C'est une honte parce que l'homme est tué
He got caught in the chains of his own game
Il a été pris dans les chaînes de son propre jeu
How can I feel guilty after all the things they did to me
Comment puis-je me sentir coupable après tout ce qu'ils m'ont fait
Sweated me, hunted me
Ils m'ont fait transpirer, ils m'ont chassé
Trapped in my own community
Piégé dans ma propre communauté
One day I'm gonna bust
Un jour, je vais éclater
Blow up on this society
Exploser sur cette société
Why did ya lie to me?
Pourquoi m'as-tu menti ?
I couldn't find a trace of equality
Je ne pouvais pas trouver une trace d'égalité
Work me like a slave while they laid back
Ils m'ont fait travailler comme un esclave pendant qu'ils se prélassaient
Homie don't play that
Mon pote ne joue pas à ça
It's time I lett 'em suffer the payback
Il est temps que je les laisse souffrir le retour de bâton
I'm tryin' to avoid physical contact
J'essaie d'éviter le contact physique

Tout ce dont j'ai besoin, c'est d'un G et d'un endroit sûr pour rester
Can't use the phone
Je ne peux pas utiliser le téléphone
'Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in
Parce que je suis sûr que quelqu'un est en train d'écouter
Did it before

Je n'ai pas peur d'utiliser mon gat à nouveau
I look back at hindsight the fight was irrelevant
Je regarde en arrière avec le recul, le combat était sans importance
But now he's the devil's friend
Mais maintenant, il est l'ami du diable
Too late to be tellin' him
Trop tard pour le lui dire
He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away

Homie is done away I should of put my gun away

I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was the ridicule
Je ne pensais pas, tout ce que j'entendais, c'était le ridicule
Girlies was laughin', Tup sayin', "Damn homies is dissin' you"
Les filles riaient, Tup disait : "Damn, les potes te manquent de respect"
I fired my weapon
J'ai tiré avec mon arme
Started steppin' in the hurricane
J'ai commencé à marcher dans l'ouragan
I got shot so I dropped
J'ai été touché alors je suis tombé
Feelin' a burst of pain
En ressentant une explosion de douleur
Got to my feet
Je me suis levé
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
Je ne pouvais rien voir d'autre que du sang
Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
Maintenant, je suis un fugitif à chasser comme un meurtrier
Ran through an alley
J'ai couru dans une ruelle
Still lookin' for my getaway
Toujours à la recherche de mon échappatoire
Coppers said Freeze, or you'll be dead today
Les flics ont dit : "Arrêtez-vous, ou vous serez mort aujourd'hui"
Trapped in a corner
Piégé dans un coin
Dark and I couldn't see the light
Il faisait sombre et je ne pouvais pas voir la lumière
Thoughts in my mind was the nine and a better life
Les pensées dans mon esprit étaient le neuf et une vie meilleure
What do I do?
Que dois-je faire ?
Live my life in a prison cell
Vivre ma vie dans une cellule de prison
I'd rather die then be trapped in a living hell
Je préférerais mourir que d'être piégé dans un enfer vivant
They got me trapped
Ils m'ont piégé
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
(Uh uh, ils ne peuvent pas garder l'homme noir en bas)
They got me trapped
Ils m'ont piégé

You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Du weißt, sie haben mich in diesem Gefängnis der Abgeschiedenheit gefangen
Happiness, living on the streets is a delusion
Glück, auf den Straßen zu leben, ist eine Illusion
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Selbst ein glatter Verbrecher muss eines Tages erwischt werden
Shot up or shot down with the bullet that he bought
Erschossen oder niedergeschossen mit der Kugel, die er gekauft hat
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what the streets do to me
Neun Millimeter treten, denken darüber nach, was die Straßen mit mir machen
'Cause they never talk peace in the black community
Denn sie sprechen nie von Frieden in der schwarzen Gemeinschaft
All we know is violence, do the job in silence
Alles, was wir kennen, ist Gewalt, die Arbeit in Stille erledigen
Walk the city streets like a rat pack of tyrants
Die Stadtstraßen wie eine Rattenbande von Tyrannen durchstreifen
Too many brothers daily heading for the big pen
Zu viele Brüder, die täglich auf den Weg ins große Gefängnis sind
Niggas commin' out worse off then when they went in
Niggas kommen schlechter raus als sie reingegangen sind
Over the years I done a lot of growin' up
Im Laufe der Jahre bin ich viel erwachsen geworden
Gettin' drunk thrown' up
Betrunken und erbrochen
Cuffed up
In Handschellen
Then I said I had enough
Dann sagte ich, ich habe genug
There must be another route, way out
Es muss einen anderen Weg geben, einen Ausweg
To money and fame, I changed my name
Zu Geld und Ruhm, ich änderte meinen Namen
And played a different game
Und spielte ein anderes Spiel
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
Müde, in diesem Teufelskreis gefangen zu sein
If one more cop harassed me I just might go psycho
Wenn mich noch ein Polizist belästigt, könnte ich durchdrehen
And when I get 'em
Und wenn ich sie erwische
I'll hit 'em with the bum rush
Ich werde sie mit dem Bum Rush treffen
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
Nur ein Verrückter würde gerne sehen, wie sein Schädel zerquetscht wird
Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go 'G'
Yo, wenn du klug bist, lässt du mich wirklich gehen 'G'
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch the Uzi
Aber halt mich eingesperrt in diesem Ghetto und fang die Uzi
They got me trapped
Sie haben mich gefangen
(Uh uh, they can't keep the black man down)
(Uh uh, sie können den schwarzen Mann nicht unten halten)
They got me trapped
Sie haben mich gefangen
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
(Nein, sie können den schwarzen Mann nicht unten halten)

(Uh uh, sie können den schwarzen Mann nicht unten halten)
Trapped
Gefangen
(Naw, they can't keep the black man down)
(Nein, sie können den schwarzen Mann nicht unten halten)
They got me trapped
Sie haben mich gefangen
Can barely walk the city streets
Kann kaum die Stadtstraßen entlanggehen
Without a cop harassing me, searching me
Ohne dass ein Polizist mich belästigt, mich durchsucht
Then asking my identity
Dann fragt er nach meiner Identität
Hands up, throw me up against the wall
Hände hoch, wirf mich gegen die Wand
Didn't do a thing at all
Habe überhaupt nichts getan
I'm tellin' you one day these suckers gotta fall
Ich sage dir, eines Tages müssen diese Sauger fallen
Cuffed up throw me on the concrete
In Handschellen geworfen, auf den Beton geworfen
Coppers try to kill me
Polizisten versuchen, mich zu töten
But they didn't know this was the wrong street
Aber sie wussten nicht, dass dies die falsche Straße war
Bang bang, down another casualty
Bang bang, ein weiterer Verlust
But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality
Aber es ist ein Polizist, der dort erschossen wurde, es ist Brutalität
Who do you blame?
Wen gibst du die Schuld?
It's a shame because the mans slain
Es ist eine Schande, weil der Mann erschlagen wurde
He got caught in the chains of his own game
Er wurde in den Ketten seines eigenen Spiels gefangen
How can I feel guilty after all the things they did to me
Wie kann ich mich schuldig fühlen nach all den Dingen, die sie mir angetan haben
Sweated me, hunted me
Sie haben mich geschwitzt, gejagt
Trapped in my own community
Gefangen in meiner eigenen Gemeinschaft
One day I'm gonna bust
Eines Tages werde ich platzen
Blow up on this society
Explodiere auf diese Gesellschaft
Why did ya lie to me?
Warum hast du mir gelogen?
I couldn't find a trace of equality
Ich konnte keine Spur von Gleichheit finden
Work me like a slave while they laid back
Arbeite mich wie einen Sklaven, während sie sich zurücklehnen
Homie don't play that
Homie spielt das nicht
It's time I lett 'em suffer the payback
Es ist Zeit, dass ich sie leiden lasse, die Rache
I'm tryin' to avoid physical contact
Ich versuche, körperlichen Kontakt zu vermeiden
I can't hold back, it's time to attack jack
Ich kann nicht zurückhalten, es ist Zeit zum Angriff, Jack
They got me trapped

(Nein, sie können den schwarzen Mann nicht unten halten)
Now I'm trapped and want to find a getaway
Jetzt bin ich gefangen und will einen Ausweg finden
All I need is a G and somewhere safe to stay
Alles, was ich brauche, ist ein G und ein sicherer Ort zum Verweilen
Can't use the phone
Kann das Telefon nicht benutzen
'Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in
Denn ich bin sicher, jemand hört mit
Did it before
Habe es schon einmal getan
Ain't scared to use my gat again
Habe keine Angst, meine Gat wieder zu benutzen
I look back at hindsight the fight was irrelevant
Ich schaue zurück auf die Nachsicht, der Kampf war irrelevant
But now he's the devil's friend
Aber jetzt ist er der Freund des Teufels
Too late to be tellin' him
Zu spät, um es ihm zu sagen
He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away
Er schoss zuerst und ich werde verdammt sein, wenn ich weglaufe
Homie is done away I should of put my gun away
Homie ist erledigt, ich hätte meine Waffe weglegen sollen
I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was the ridicule
Ich dachte nicht, alles, was ich hörte, war der Spott
Girlies was laughin', Tup sayin', "Damn homies is dissin' you"
Mädchen lachten, Tup sagte: „Verdammt, Homies dissen dich“
I fired my weapon
Ich feuerte meine Waffe ab
Started steppin' in the hurricane
Begann im Hurrikan zu treten
I got shot so I dropped
Ich wurde angeschossen, also fiel ich hin
Feelin' a burst of pain
Fühlte einen Schmerzschub
Got to my feet
Kam auf die Füße
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
Konnte nichts sehen außer blutigem Blut
Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
Jetzt bin ich ein Flüchtling, der gejagt wird wie ein Mörder
Ran through an alley
Rannte durch eine Gasse
Still lookin' for my getaway
Suche immer noch nach meinem Ausweg
Coppers said Freeze, or you'll be dead today
Polizisten sagten Freeze, oder du bist heute tot
Trapped in a corner
In einer Ecke gefangen
Dark and I couldn't see the light
Dunkel und ich konnte das Licht nicht sehen
Thoughts in my mind was the nine and a better life
Gedanken in meinem Kopf waren die Neun und ein besseres Leben
What do I do?
Was soll ich tun?
Live my life in a prison cell
Lebe mein Leben in einer Gefängniszelle
I'd rather die then be trapped in a living hell
